Judges 13 Intro: Israel is in the hands of the Philistines -- An angel appeareth to Manoah's wife, and to Manoah -- Manoah's sacrifice -- Samson is born.
1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord delivered them into the hands of Philistines forty years.
2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not.
3 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not; but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.
4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing;
5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head; for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb; and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
